Pizza Dough Half Whitehalf Whole Wheat Cpk Recipes

Steps:

• Proof yeast in a measuring cup with lukewarm water.
• In a food processor add whole wheat and all purpose flours, proofed yeast, oil mixed with honey and salt. Pulse processor to combine all ingredients. Then process until the dough forms a ball on the blade. Remove dough to a large oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes or until dough has doubled in bulk.
• Punch down dough and transfer to a floured board and knead briefly. Divide dough into 4 equal portions and roll each piece into a ball. Place the balls of dough, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight. Bring the dough to room temperature before proceeding.
• On a floured board roll and stretch each piece of dough into a 7 to 8-inch circle. Place each circle on a wooden pizza peel or pizza pan and top as desired.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. and bake 7 to 8 minutes per pizza.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water. Sprinkle yeast over the top, and let stand for about 10 minutes, until foamy.
• Stir the olive oil and salt into the yeast mixture, then mix in the whole wheat flour and 1 cup of the all-purpose flour until dough starts to come together. Tip dough out onto a surface floured with the remaining all-purpose flour, and knead until all of the flour has been absorbed, and the ball of dough becomes smooth, about 10 minutes. Place dough in an oiled bowl, and turn to coat the surface. Cover loosely with a towel, and let stand in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• When the dough is doubled, tip the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and divide into 2 pieces for 2 thin crust, or leave whole to make one thick crust. Form into a tight ball. Let rise for about 45 minutes, until doubled.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Roll a ball of dough with a rolling pin until it will not stretch any further. Then, drape it over both of your fists, and gently pull the edges outward, while rotating the crust. When the circle has reached the desired size, place on a well oiled pizza pan. Top pizza with your favorite toppings, such as sauce, cheese, meats, or vegetables.
• Bake for 16 to 20 minutes (depending on thickness) in the preheated oven, until the crust is crisp and golden at the edges, and cheese is melted on the top.

Steps:

• Pour water into bowl and sprinkle in the yeast. Stir until it has dissolved.
• Add the unbleached flour, salt and oil. Mix thoroughly with a spoon. Add one and three-fourths cups of the whole wheat flour and mix. You will have a soft dough that will begin to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
• From the remaining flour, lightly sprinkle the work surface. Remove the dough from the bowl and knead in the remaining flour (use only as much as it takes to keep the dough from sticking to your hands). Knead for at least 10 minutes until the dough becomes soft and elastic.
• Place the ball of dough in a lightly oiled bowl. Brush the dough with a light coat of oil and cover the top of the bowl tightly with plastic wrap. Place the bowl in a warm, draft-free area and allow the dough to double in size. Depending on the temperature, it will take one to three hours. Alternatively, place the bowl in an oven with the pilot light on and the dough will take 40 to 50 minutes to rise.
• When the dough has doubled in bulk, punch it down with your fist. Pull the dough together and place it on a floured surface. Divide it into four equal parts. Roll each one out to form a 10-inch pizza shell.
• Place an unglazed pizza tile in the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees for one hour. Lightly flour the pizza tile and slide the dough on top (if using a pizza pan, simply press the dough into the pan). Put the pizza in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl using a spoon. Pour in water and oil; mix until dough no longer sticks to the bowl. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 to 8 minutes.
• Transfer dough to a greased bowl; cover bowl with a clean towel. Place bowl in the oven with the light turned on until risen, about 1 hour.
